we have a number of new degree tracks in the Chemistry Department 

00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:21.000
such as Forensic Chemistry, Medical Chemistry and Environmental Chemistry options.

00:00:21.000 --> 00:00:24.000
In science there's so much to learn and so much more to discover.  

00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:29.000
I'm looking forward to mixing substances with you.

00:00:29.000 --> 00:00:34.000
I'm looking forward to thinking about crimes and criminals and what to do about both; 

00:00:34.000 --> 00:00:40.000
investigating drug use and abuse; teaching, researching and writing about justice issues'. 

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:44.000
seriously, I really love this stuff.

Yes, we do have bones on campus for forensic anthropology and yes 

00:01:00.000 --> 00:01:05.000
we do have cadavers '" and NO you can't see them unless you're a biology major

00:01:05.000 --> 00:01:10.000
Traditionally, Western has been a teachers college.  

00:01:10.000 --> 00:01:18.000
Well, I'm here to tell you we're still proudly training future educators along with a variety of other majors.

The College of Education offers degrees in community health, 

00:01:24.000 --> 00:01:28.000
ASL and exercise science.  And, if you're still undecided, 

00:01:28.000 --> 00:01:32.000
check out Career Services and Learning Center.

00:01:32.000 --> 00:01:36.000
